I am a Principal Teaching Fellow (Associate Professor) at the University of Southampton, U.K. from where I hold a PhD in Economics. I have been a part of the Department of Economics as a member of staff since 2016. My research is in the area of experimental microeconomics, with a focus on education applications. In particular, I am interested in how individuals’ time and risk preferences interact with other dimensions to influence behaviour. I elicit risk and time preferences using experiments (both lab and online). I have applied this interest to investigating the relationship between student characteristics and their educational achievements and identifying interventions that may help students become more sophisticated and adapt their behaviour to manage procrastination.
main research interests
The role of time, risk preferences as well as self-efficacy in student decision making. Including choice of degree, procrastination behaviour and student outcomes.
